While this is true, you could easily hook up a torque sensor to this setup in the form of a torque-sensing bottom bracket. Grin currently has a left-crank-measuring cheap option that isn't amazing but it's significantly better than a cadence sensor. Then there's the dual-crank option for a good chunk more. I'm running a version of the latter and it feels pretty amazing. My motor's different though. It's a smaller and lighter geared hub - Bafang G310. The G310 is more appropriate for as-light-as-possible applications. In fact the front version of this hub is probably the lightest option.
